Iowa State coach Fred Hoiberg will return home when his team plays at Nebraska on Saturday.

Hoiberg will be coaching his first Big 12 game.

He was born in Lincoln, his parents attended Nebraska and his grandfather, Jerry Bush, is a Nebraska basketball Hall of Famer.

“To say it’s going to be an emotional game for me is an understatement,” said Hoiberg. “To coach against the same team my grandfather coached — it’s going to be a special moment.”
